thoughts on result update
I posted my daughters pre hysterectomy bloods in September and had some excellent advice. She has redone the blood tests and I still think the thyroid test results are strange. She has been on iron for 8 weeks. The first results are for September. And the second for

still no luck
I have had no more luck with seeing the drs since I posted my last results. I’m going on holiday soon so will ask to be retested again when I come back. Just wanted a little advice as to vitamins. I take no supplements at the moment and dud but some but then I read I shouldn’t be taking them I think

Feeling desperate
I'm feeling very low at the moment, and quite isolated. I'm hoping to get some advice here. I'm a 45 year old male, and have had Hashimoto's since my early 20s. After a terrible few years on thyroxin I found NDT and on the whole have been relatively well on it. However, since around 2019 I've had bouts

Annual Medication Review
I would be very grateful if any of you lovely people can give me some advice. I have received a text from my GP surgery to book my annual medication review appointment, I can stretch this out for about 5/6 weeks if I need to. I was started on 50 mcg of Levothyroxine in December 2022 and had it increased

ET + Anagrelide
Is anyone taking Angrelide and dealing with side effects? I have ET+CALR, became resistant to Hydrea and couldn't tolerate the side effects of Interferon. Now that I'm on Anagrelide (0.5mg twice a day) my platelets are in the 600,000's and I seem to tolerate it ok. However I deal with rapid heartbeats

Treating Parkinson’s by targeting the gut-brain axis with B vitamins
A study by Nagoya University in Japan found a link between gut bacteria and Parkinson’s disease (PD). Researchers discovered fewer gut bacteria genes that make B vitamins B2 and B7 in PD patients. They also found that low levels of these vitamins are linked to poor intestinal barrier function, allowing

People with hypothyroidism and ME
Those who suffer with both hypothyroidism and ME, do you find that your exhaustion is somewhat abated if your vitamins and minerals are optimal? I have posted previously about a friend who has had hypothyroidism for many years. But after contracting Covid she started to feel exhausted and eventually

Hi, I'm fairly new to this site & this is the first time I've posted. I had recurrent non-malignant cysts on my thyroid with no other apparent symptoms in around 2006.

A newbie question about vitamin D3
Before discovering compression fractures due to osteoporosis, I was taking various vitamin supplements. ( this is going to sound like I’m a hypochondriac, but I was trying to stay healthy). I had Garlic tablets, Glucosamine& Chondroitin, vit B, vit D3 and zinc. After my DEXA scan, my old GP put me on

Has anyone experienced INR fluctuations while holidaying in the Mediterranean?
I am in Greece, different climate, different food, swimming etc. I will have my INR checked on Monday and wondering how much it will be different. Apart from food and drink, I read somewhere that vitamin D can influence INR. What has been your experiences?
